Set the Network Address

The thumbwheel switches are set to 999 and DHCP enabled, by
default. You can set the network Internet Protocol (IP) address in the
following ways:

• Use the thumbwheel switches on the module.

• Use a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server,

such as Rockwell Automation BootP/DHCP.

• Retrieve the IP address from nonvolatile memory

.

The adapter reads the thumbwheel switches first to determine if the
switches are set to a valid number. You set the node address by using
the 3-position thumbwheel switch. Press the + or - buttons to change
the number. Valid settings range from 001…254.

When the switches are set to a valid number, the adapter’s IP address
is 192.168.1.xxx (where xxx represents the number set on the
switches).

The adapter’s subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 and the gateway address
is set to 0.0.0.0. The adapter does not have a host name assigned, or
use any Domain Name System when using the thumbwheel settings.

Network Address Thumbwheel

If the switches are set to an invalid number (for example, 000 or a
value greater than 254 excluding 888), the adapter checks to see if
DHCP is enabled.
